Workshop
During the UAV workshop at the Slovak institute of Science (ILE SAS) in Bratislava (Figure 1), airborne data derived in combination with a joint measurement in November 2021, were used to show participants the potential applications in terms of river engineering and ecology. The workshop focused on the acquisition and processing of remote sensing data using UAV systems. The main presentation in the workshop about UAV training was held by the Slovakian company SKYMOVE. Experts from various field of sciences (ecology, water management) and from both countries (SK, AT) participated at the workshop.
